What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The Rate of Suppression of Serum Testosterone to Castrate Level

    Comparison of the proportion of patients maintained at castration level (≤100 ng/dL)

    Measured: From the start of study drug administration through Week 48

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Time Course of Changes in Serum Testosterone

    Measured: From baseline to Week 48

  2. Time Course of Changes in Serum Luteinizing Hormone (LH)

    Measured: From baseline to Week 48

  3. Time Course of Changes in Serum Follicle-stimulating Hormone (FSH)

    Measured: From baseline to Week 48

  4. Time Course of Change Rate in Serum PSA (FAS)

    Evaluation according to the "Criteria for therapeutic effect" from the General Rule for Clinical Pathological Studies on Prostate Cancer, 4th edition (determination of therapeutic effect by prostate-specific antigen [PSA])

    Measured: From baseline to Week 48

  5. The Maximum Rate of Change in PSA Suppression (FAS)

    Evaluation according to the "Criteria for therapeutic effect" from the General Rule for Clinical Pathological Studies on Prostate Cancer, 4th edition (determination of therapeutic effect by PSA)

    Measured: From baseline to Week 48

  6. Percentage of Participants With Progression by PSA (FAS)

    Evaluation according to the "Criteria for therapeutic effect" from the General Rule for Clinical Pathological Studies on Prostate Cancer, 4th edition (determination of therapeutic effect by PSA)

    Measured: From baseline to Week 48

  7. Soft Tissue Response

    Assessment in accordance with the "criteria for therapeutic effect" from the General Rule for Clinical Pathological Studies on Prostate Cancer, 4th edition. Soft tissue response was evaluated in accordance with the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1) for target lesions and assessed by CT or MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.

    Measured: At week 48

  8. Bone Lesion Response

    Partially revised assessment based on the "criteria for therapeutic effect" from the General Rule for Clinical and Pathological Studies on Prostate Canter, 4th edition. Response is measured using bone scintigraphy. Increase in new (2 or more) bone lesion is considered as progression

    Measured: At Week 48

  9. Serum Unchanged TAP-144 Level

    Measured: From baseline to Week 48

  10. 12-lead ECG

    Measured: At 1 hour, week 24, and week 48 after administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing TAP-144-SR(6M) and TAP-144-SR(3M) in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Takeda at 16 sites in Japan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jul 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 16 sites in Japan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Jul 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The Rate of Suppression of Serum Testosterone to Castrate Level (time frame: From the start of study drug administration through Week 48). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Jul 2015.
